About This Game

HEXSTORM: Tears of Arcadia is a steampunk tower defense strategy game with roguelike elements.

You command the flying frigate Arcadia. Break through enemy waves to uncover the mystery of the fallen captain.

As you defend your ship, you build one connected energy network out of turrets and support vessels. Lose a single node, and your entire defense can be left powerless.

Every battle feels fresh. Temporary boost modules and mission conditions change the rules, forcing you to adapt and try new tactics. Enemies do not follow tidy lanes. They strike from all sides, using cunning maneuvers and elaborate approaches to reach Arcadia's crew. Between missions, you can expand and upgrade your ship.

Set course for a thrilling journey through the weeping world of Khoral aboard a legendary frigate.

• Tower defense in motion. The battlefield is never static. Your ship keeps moving, and your defense adapts on the fly against ground and air threats.

• Every run is unique thanks to roguelike structure. The same strategy will not carry you twice, so decisions must be made in the moment.

• An energy network instead of isolated towers. Turrets, collectors, and support ships all share one power system. Destroy one node and half your defense can go dark.

• Skyborne aesthetics. Levels draw inspiration from classic RTS games and are hand-crafted with obsessive attention to detail.

HEXSTORM: Tears of Arcadia is a story of betrayal, recovery, and endless attempts to hold control over a machine that may be thinking more than it lets on.
